Deck Cleaning, Repair & Maintenance
If a timber deck is left untreated then it has no protection against the effects of weathering, rain, snow, freezing temperatures and harmful UV rays from the sun. Unprotected wood decking will soon start to fade and turn grey from the sunlight and if too much water is absorbed into the wood this can lead to rot and decks splintering and splitting.
They will also get dirty and algae or moss can quickly colonise a deck making it unsightly to look at and slippery and dangerous to walk on. Moss, lichen and algae thrive in damp conditions and untreated wood never properly dries out, except perhaps during a heatwave, but they’re not too frequent in the UK.
We also provide decking cleaning, repair & maintenance services in London and surrounding areas. Exterior decking needs some weatherproofing protection and this means using :
-
decking oil
-
stain
-
